Children can win cash and prizes for running at least 20 miles per hour
CHICAGO - illiNews -- Mondo, the leading provider of sports tracks, will provide a state-of-the-art running track for a Footspeed competition.

Mondo's participation in the Saint Sabina block party complements its recent selection by the Chicago Park District to provide the running track for Chicago's new Gately Indoor Track & Field facility in the nearby Pullman neighborhood. Scheduled to open in 2020, the venue will be the first in Illinois with a hydraulic banked track. It also is a part of its Mondo Cares program, which emphasizes the company's longstanding commitment to global social responsibility and encompasses community service initiatives and partnerships with like-minded entities. The program's goal is to empower people to be champions on, and beyond, the surface.
Saint Sabina is a Catholic Church and faith community led by Pastor Michael Pfleger. The mostly African American parish and "community of love, education and service" hosts numerous "peace, justice & community" events throughout the year. In addition to the Footspeed competition, the Saint Sabina Block Party will feature music, dancing, games for children, basketball, and food. It is free and open to the public. Renaissance Park is located at 1300 W. 79th Street in Chicago.
Event organizers, communities and corporations interested in having the Mondo portable track system at their events are invited to contact the company at mondo@mondousa.com or 800-361-3747.
